A week ago I had fedora 10 installed in my laptop. I am the only one using linux in my company. We have a windows network with a server files where we have a folder shared. With F10, i could access normally the shared folder without set up anything. Just broswer the network and everything was ok. But now I replace F10 by OS11.1 and the only thing that doesn’t work at suse is this damm samba. Nautilius can see till the windows group, after that, it doesn’t do anything… i can see the machines in my network or access the server.
I saw others posts like my, but i didnt see any solution.
Any help?
Ps: my firewall is disable and i have smb and nmb started.
Best,
Daniel

Do you see the shares with:
smbclient -L <ServerName> -Uguest%
If you do it is Nautilius not Samba. Try a different browser.

I believe Nautilus has a bug that requires that you drill down on the shares
in order to see them. ( I do not use gnome.) Try using something like
Firefox. Enter:
smb://192.168.2.10/
You are also not resolving names properly. It looks to me like your system
used DNS and found a public IP. First off, is this an AD domain? If not AD,
is the “workgroup” parameter in /etc/samba/smb.conf set to your
workgroup/domain name? If not make it so. Verify that nmb is really
running.
ps -A | grep nmb
You can also try adding the server information to /etc/hosts. The format of
each entry is a three part space separated line:
IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname

@PV: Nautilus had that bug in openSUSE 11.0. It’s working properly in 11. so that’s not the problem. I agree that names aren’t being resolved properly in this case.
